As Prince Harry approaches his 40th birthday, reports suggest he is planning a weekend getaway with some of his closest friends. However, royal experts have issued a warning about the potential risks of the trip, particularly given Harry’s previous party antics.
The Duke of Sussex, who turns 40 later this week, is rumoured to be planning a friends’ trip, which his wife Meghan Markle would not join him on. While the destination remains unrevealed, royal expert Charles Rae has warned Harry to avoid any behaviour that could cause problems with Meghan. Rae referenced the infamous Trip to Las Vegas in 2012where photos of the prince playing naked pool with women went viral, generating widespread media coverage.
Rae noted that Harry’s current circumstances are very different from his past, saying: “He’s married now with kids, and he needs to avoid causing problems for his wife.” She warned that Harry should be careful not to repeat the kind of wild behaviour he was known for in his younger years, such as the 2012 Las Vegas incident or the 2011 party in Croatia, where Harry was seen diving fully clothed into a pool and dancing barefoot at a rave.
Talking with GB NewsRae said: “Let’s hope Harry doesn’t end up doing what he did in 2012… He has two children and if he has an ounce of brains in his body he won’t do anything that might cause problems with his wife. She won’t take any prisoners if he does.”
It is not yet clear whether any members of the Royal Family will be part of Harry’s trip, given his strained relationship with his brother, Prince William. However, Harry still has a close relationship with his cousin, Princess Eugenie, who could potentially accompany him.
The birthday trip is expected to follow a family celebration at Harry and Meghan’s Montecito mansion in California. The sunThe family party will include Meghan and her children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. Afterwards, Harry could head off with friends such as his longtime polo partner, Nacho Figueras, for a more private celebration.
